Distribution and developmental timing of zebrafish liver innervation
Bess M. Miller,
Wolfram Goessling
Abstract:Hepatic innervation regulates multiple aspects of liver function, repair and regeneration, and liver denervation is associated with higher rates of metabolic disorders in humans. However, the mechanisms regulating the development of the hepatic nervous system, as well as the role of the hepatic nervous system in liver development and maturation, are still largely unknown. Zebrafish are a widely used model of liver development and regeneration, but hepatic innervation in zebrafish has not yet been described in … Show more
